20+ PLA Jets Cross Median Line Over Taiwan Strait As Chinese Drills Encircle Island
Less than a half-day after Nancy Pelosi’s departure from Taiwan on a US Air Force plane, a large group of 27 Chinese PLA planes breached Taiwan’s air defense identification zone Wednesday, crucially with at least 22 of the aircraft reported as having crossed the Taiwan Strait “median line”.
The exercises are unprecedented as the PLA conventional missiles are expected to fly over the island of Taiwan for the first time, the PLA forces will enter area within 12 nautical miles of the island and that the so-called median line will cease to exist,” the publication wrote while detailing the next phase of PLA drills to surround the island.

Chinese government controlled papers have stated that China will impose a blockade upon Taiwan intermittently and from now on.
They have also made public new laws that will target secessionists and their families after China assumes full control of Taiwan.
I bet the US does very little and that Pelosi was just grandstanding.
